    Firangi is cuuuuute
    Cheryl G.

    This place is super cute! Not a traditional Indian restaurant, but they do a good job of delivering the flavors in their own way. We started out with chai tea, and mango lassi, both of them amazing. For appetizers, we got the Firangi Fried Chicken and Samosa. The flavor of the chicken was good, but the coating on it was honestly kind of soggy. The samosas were very large and delicious. I'm a huge fan of both of the sauces that came with the appetizers. My friend had the Chana masala and she said it was good but the sauce was just a tad on the watery side. My other friend got the tandoori chicken bowl and I had the hellish shrimp bowl. We were both super happy with the bowls. They came with Naan bread, korma vegetables and some saffron rice. I thought the shrimp was fantastic, loved how it was breaded in a chickpea crust with a sweet-and-sour sauce. Not really traditional Indian, but really tasty. The korma vegetables were outstanding but I was not a huge fan of the rice. I would've just had a regular basmati rice if I had a choice. My friend said that the tandoori Chicken outstanding that was in her bowl. I loved the atmosphere inside the restaurant. Very cute, colorful and playful. Our server was fantastic and lightning fast. I would definitely return if I was in the area.

    Great food and service! I would recommend everyone to come try this place. I loved the shrimp and chicken tandoori. Super different and tasty! Big thumbs up to the amazing chef. I will come again and try the other dishes! 10/10 :)

    Some of the best Indian food I've ever had!! I think the owner is the main server. She takes pride in her restaurant/food and it shows. We love how cute the bar is! The pool tables are a nice touch as well. They have some outside tables if you prefer eating outside. This is a newer restaurant on Grand and quickly is becoming one of our favorite places to go out!

    Chicken tikka and saag
    Jan H.

    So glad we finally got an Indian restaurant in the Escondido area, it was long overdue. It's downtown Escondido but there's still plenty of street parking or in the maple plaza lot. We came here for an early lunch during a weekend, and it wasn't too busy. The decor is freshly painted bright teal and white, and the server was pleasant. We ordered the chicken tikka Masala medium spicy. While the flavor was good, it didn't really seem to be as hot as we expected, although you could taste the spices. I also ordered the saag as its always a go to of mine. I order it mild level and I was happy with it. It was very smooth and light tasting. The garlic naan was fresh and very good, just a little crispy like i like it. We also had the samosas that had potato base. I usually prefer the lamb ones, which they dont have, but these were good. If you enjoy Indian food and live in Escondido you should definitely come, especially since it's one of the only options for this cuisine..

    Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Can't thank the host enough for his hospitality and accommodation. We were a group of 8 and we chose to sit outside in the patio. The tables were joined and chairs were set ready for us in no time. I tried their Nimbu Paani, Malai Kofta, and Green Rogan Josh curry. Both the entrees come with rice. You can order roti or naan on the side if you want. The curries tasted very authentic, spiced, and delicious. The host was super friendly, adding riddles to our mix and also gave out desserts ( Chocomosa with Pistachio ice cream and Gulab Jamun) on the house. They were a great combo and tasted like they should. They've a nice ambience to play pool if you're in a mood for it and a bar for drinks. Definitely coming back to try other dishes on their menu. Keep it up, Firangi!

    New Indian restaurant on Grand. They are in their Soft Opening stages, so they are still getting their bearings- please more thorough dish cleaning (had lipstick on my cup), would benefit from a water pitcher at every table (instead of pouring water into each cup, our server took all of our cups, filled them & randomly returned it to us Russian Roulette style), please check on your tables more frequently. It is also nice when the restaurant has their staff sample the menu so they can give recommendations or describe flavors to the customers, our server told us that they have not tried many of the dishes/cocktails. Nonetheless, service was friendly! The food was amazing. We were told that there will be many more dishes added once they have their Grand Opening so look out for that. They have beers on draft, wine & cocktails. Curry Mac N Cheese: I do not know who Luke is but I can see how this is his favorite dish! Creamy & flavorful. Dynamite Wings: Delicious sauce & juicy meat. Samosa Slim: A must order! Love their dipping sauce. Chicken Tikki Masala: Their sauce is super tasty, with just a hint of spiciness. Garlic Naan: Good. Cocktails were a bit bland.

    We came in for the soft opening. The restaurant looks very put together for still being updated. You can tell that they're still working on the decor but otherwise I love how bright and open the space is. There was 1 worker who was manning the whole place when we came in but despite that the service was great. He was very friendly and answered all of our questions. I didn't catch his name but even the food runner who brought out our food was so kind. As for the food, we started out with the curry fries and the cheese naan. I didn't get a picture of the naan but it was delicious! The cheese was inside the naan and on top it had this delicious mango chutney. The curry fries were delicious too and had a bit of a coconut flavor. I ordered the chicken tikka BBQ and it came with a side of masala and it was delicious! I loved how smoked the chicken was. Overall we will all be coming back. They had some very interesting looking cocktails so we'll be coming back to try those!

    I'm so happy this place has opened in Escondido. What a great experience, right in the middle of Grand. I ordered the Layover in Bombay cocktail which was delicious. For food I ordered the samosas and chicken wings. The samosas were pretty authentic with the ingredients and spices, and the sauces to dip them in were tasty! The chicken wings were so good that I only got a picture of the last one. They were sooo good and nice and juicy on the inside. The server was wonderful although I cant remember her name. It was busy when we were there during Cruisin' Grand, and she did a great job making sure we were never waiting long. I can't wait to go back for more!

    Lunch special bowl "chicken vindaloo".
    Darcy J.

    I had a lovely light strawberry champagne cocktail and a lunch special bowl, chicken vindaloo. It had a great spicy kick, but there are other choices too. The bowl came with chicken vindaloo, veggies, rice and naan and it was all delicious. The atmosphere is relaxing, but uplifting. Service was excellent. I'm so glad I finally got a chance to try this place. I'll be back.

    All the appetizers!
    Tali C.

    I have been going here since they opened, and everything they make is delicious. I decided to invite some girlfriends here for happy hour and it was amazing. Lots of great choices. Both the food and drinks were delicious and different than the usual. We had so much fun. The only change I would have made is the TVs were playing News feeds. Right now I'm going there to escape the bad in the world, I don't need the reminders. Music videos or sports would be better choices.

    In the photo is the Butter Chicken curry & Masala with Lamb curry! Couldn't recommend this place more! Start with the NaanHummus and get two Cheese Samosas! Then get your curry and a drink- I recommend the Mangonada if you're in search of a mocktail. The customer service 10/10! Everyone was friendly and kept checking in on how everything was tasting. This place is great make a quick stop or a dinner date HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Fun sitting area and great decor.

    We were greeted with a big hello when we came in. The menu was great Skye our server was so helpful. She let us taste the spiced iced tea and made some recommendations. The tandoori salad and the Curry chicken bowl were just perfect and so tasty. We had some time constraints, so the food came quickly enough and skye was able to get us out with time to spare. The decor was fun and we decided to sit in the windowsill. The spiced iced tea was also great just enough flavor. We will come back.

    Very good service great food awesome drinks super nice people would totally recommendread more

    This has quickly become my brother and I'm go-to spot! We're both pretty upset that our first…read moreexperience was take out, but let me tell you..we fixed that VERY quickly. I can proudly say I have tried quite a few things on the menu already and have not been disappointed. I'd say at this point my brother and I have been here over 5 times. We even brought our parents here twice already. Once for dinner and once for breakfast. My brother and I have done breakfast, lunch and dinner at this point. The first item I tried was the Sun-Dried Tomato Rigatoni. This was so creamy and delicious (later found out you cam add another meat). Which my mom tried her first time around with Salmon. She said it was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. From that first pasta, I tried the March Month Special, I got the chopped cheese with no cheese (lactose intolerant) but man did I devour it so fast!! There tater tots never miss btw ALWAYS crispy. The Grilled Chicken Sando, mannn was thay superr good too. Chicken was juicy and always love me some avocado. I told my brother I am going to make it a priority to try everything I cam here. Also, the presentation on the plates ESPECIALLY the Fresno 1/2 Chicken *chefs kiss* The service is NEVER misses. Soo attentive no matter the time of day. Tony's drinks are UH-MAY-ZING. We had Mckellen as our server and he was great. The biggest shoutout to James (the owner) seems like he knows how to create a phenomenal work environment and keeps his people happy. We've seen him walk around often and checking in. You can definitely see thay he cares. I HIGHLY recommend coming here if you have the chance. Also, try the Espresso Martini my brother who is far from a coffee drinker even loves it!!
